Origin and meaning of Timéo

Timéo is the French form of Timeo/Timothy, from the Greek Timótheos, combining timē, 'honor', and theós, 'God', so 'one who honors God'. Spreading through France especially since the 2010s, it quickly climbed among the most chosen boys' names in INSEE statistics, part of the taste for short names ending in -o. Parents value its cheerful sound and classical roots.
